sim card + no sim card = no wifi + wifi

sim card ( 1+no ) = wifi ( 1+no ) ==> sim card = wifi

Do the math guys and make my day "

What do you guys learn in school there? :)

As Fremen567 says, head over to the Nexus S ICS forum and see if they've got a workaround going.

EDIT: If they do, can you post the workaround here for the other users having to bang their head against a brick wall? If it's a simple fix then perhaps Pawitp can throw the workaround under the FAQ on the OP

And then call your carrier and ask them why the hell they won't let you access Wifi !!!!

(I didn't even think it was possible to disable phone ROM options from a Sim card other than Sim lock???)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] j.go:
I've had this, too, even with onecosmic's ICS. Might be a problem with media scanner. After every reboot, it scans the external SD and adds it again to the database, or whatever you call it. A workaround is to move your media files to the internal SD. Even then, I noticed that media scanner acts a little wonky. After a reboot, if you open gallery or music immediately, you will see your files disappearing one by one. After a while, when media scanner is done with whatever it does your media files will slowly return. Because of this, I had to put some custom ringtones and alarms in /system/media.

You would have to prove that

"sim card ( 1+no ) = wifi ( 1+no ) ==> sim card = wifi" indeed it true :P

Because it isn;t always, example: 2*2=0 mod 4 and 2*0=0 mod 4, but 2 does not equal 0 :D

But it's a strange thing indeed, hope they find a solution if there isn;t one already :)

roaming bug

Not sure if its already reported.

While on roaming the 3g/h/edge icon is not getting displayed. The data is getting available though. Not a big deal but it will be helpful if its known whether it got connected to 3g or 2g
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
Does it appear when you are NOT roaming?

You are looking for a little letter above the signal strength delta, not the old separate icon, yes?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pawitp:
It's a "known problem" or rather "by design". Blame Google. (Any idea how to fix it nicely? It'll be hard if you want to fit both roaming and data in there.)

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] jeebspawnshop:
When I used to use Blackberry's, I really liked that when you were roaming, it would have a nice little red triangle icon all by itself in the status bar, just to remind you that the phone company was doing you dry.

I think it would be nice if you somehow fiddled with it so that the signal strength and relevant letters (G, 3G, etc) would remain the same on local or roaming modes, and only add a small red triangle to the status bar when roaming.

Easy ;) -- says the guy who can't code a single byte --

I had this also when I upgraded from Build 3 to B4. I had the triplicate issue as well as music not playing - but I went through every file and noticed that in some cases 1 of the 3 files DID play.

Also non of my notification files would play. It was a little harder for me to diagnose as I had music/files on both Internal and EMMC - in the end I took the easy way out and did a Restore

I installed build 6 without any problems coming from stock 2.3.5.

I have one problem, device encryption does not work. It shows the screen, i click on the button: encrypt device. it show the android robot, thats all. I have been waiting for 1 1/2 hours and it still sits there. I have removed the exchange account to see if it does encrypt. It still does not. I have repared permissions, still the same result.

this is problematic because i can not use EXCHANGE with activesync as I used to with version 2.3.5.

any ideas how to get it to work?

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xchasa:
Bln works with rom from the get go.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
After nearly a day on Build6, I am beginning to get a good sense of the build. I have been running into lots of little problems with different apps, but I believe most of those are due to the apps not being updated for ICS (Such as GO Dialer being unable to change themes). Those I am sure will be worked out in due time by the app devs.

Beyond those issues, I have found that problems most often occur during transitions from one app or feature to another. For example, if you wish to add a picture to a contact, you open Contacts, choose a contact to edit, opt to open the camera to take the picture, then are sent to Gallery to crop the pic you take. When switching from Contacts to the Camera, or the Camera to Gallery the process tends to crash. It is not a major issue, it can be worked around pretty easily (take picture, open contacts, opt to add a pic from gallery, crop it...that works fine), but the interface between apps seems to be a troublespot at this stage. I am sure such issues will be fixed in upcoming builds, so they are hardly showstoppers at this time...just indicative I the current state of things.

Really the Gallery over all tends to be a bit hurkyjerky..sometimes it crashes, sometimes it doesn't. That may also be part of the issue, but the contact pic problem remains when using Quickpic.

Also, can someone smart explain to me the advantages and disadvantages of forcing 2G rendering from the Dev Tools in Settings? I noticed that Quickpic at least doesn't play nicely with that option.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] xchasa:
I think the force 2G rendering option forces everything to run hw accelerated instead of only services needing it. So phone slows and lags. It is better left unchecked.

Dual core can handle this option better.

Could be wrong but this was my understanding.

I have deleted gallery and use quickpic and phone does run better with this setup. Better battery too as stock gallery always backs up images to Google account. Big drains with 5000+ images and clips.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Vogie:
I couldn't find any solution for SIM-WiFi problem.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] wogfella:
Dude, Rule # 1 about CM and associates - never ask for an ETA.

As per the implementation - I suggest Elixer or something of the like that allows you to put a shortcut or power widget that does something similar, until the guys work that option into the custom CM power widget (*assumes that this will happen while whistling softly*)

thanks to teamHacksung! GLW CM9 which everyone is highly anticipating!

now my impressions,

1. wow there is youtube! is it running in HTML?

2. wallpaper hack!

3. USB support!

4. cons battery drain

5. app compatibility

6. Ram Hog stock ICS apps

meanwhile switching back to cm7

5. Install Spare Parts from CM7?

6. What Hog?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] rschenck:
A little hard to follow what you mean with some of those comments, but as for the YouTube issue, YouTube has provided both Flash and HTML video for a while now. Emperor Apple demanded it.

I think you were meaning that the last three were cons but I don't agree with you on all three. I have not found the ICS apps to be problems performance wise. App compatibility is NOT a problem with the ROM, but a problem with the apps needing to pull their socks up and release updates for ICS. Lastly, you find the battery drain on Build6 worse then in CM7 which you switched back to? Really?

8 different sims, three different carriers...but Wifi works when the sim is pulled out, does not when the sim is inserted. It DID work on CM7, but not on either ICS rom.

Wow. Welcome to Weirdville. Population...you.

My first question is did you try multiple Wifi access points? Next, are other users in Iran able to use Wifi with Sim cards.

If the answers are yes to the first and no to the second, then I would contact Google about it as it would seem to be directly related to a carrier-based against using ICS in Iran, but if that is so, why block Wifi but not 3G?

If other Iranian users are not suffering this problem, then all I can think of is you have some very odd hardware issue with ICS and should talk to your service provider.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] arianesfahani:
first answer is yes, same result and second answer is no !

the problem is , we. Iranian people cant contact Google ! every Google stuff is blocked here by Google itself . we are living in a forbidden country :P

and about 3G , well, there is no 3G here :)

Then I fear my friend this may be a governmental decision to spike internet access using new Android phones, similar to Syria outlawing iPhones. I personally can think of no other reason for this bizarre behavior. If there is a way to do so without putting yourself at risk, you may want to ask around and see if other devices using ICS in Iran are having similar issues. Maybe ask in the Nexus S forums here.

Keep us posted.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] themate1987:
they are probably using sim network cards to block wi-fi acces

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] pawitp:
The SIM itself isn't important as it's only for the country code. ICS sends the country code to the Wi-Fi driver so it can figure out the frequency and stuff. However, when the Iran country code is sent to the driver, it screws up for some reason.

in a shell, open "wpa_cli" and type "DRIVER COUNTRY US" and wifi will work... until next time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Fremen567:
Some gt-i9023 users living in EU are having the same issue. Certain SIM cards are adding "wifi country code" or something along that line to dbdata i think.

There's a thread in Nexus S general elaborating the issue. Needs to be fixed on the kernel level it's what one of the guys suggested there.

I'm having a strange issue, maybe it's not related to the wifi problems mentioned here.

As I have problems turning wifi hotspot on, I did many tests to find the problem.

This is my latest test:

1. reinstall build 6 + gappsv5.1

2. wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache + wipe dalvik cache

3. connect to gmail account using 3G

=> at this point I can turn on wifi hotspot.

4. connect to wifi

=> now I can't turn on wifi hotspot.

The hotspot icon appears top left corner message, and disappear immediately.

The status turns to "error".

Turning off and on again: no error, but status says "turning wifi on...". No icon.

This is all done without installation of any app, nor did I restote a TB backup.

Just a reminder that the bootloaders for a version, be they Froyo, Gingerbread or ICS...are all the same to the best of my knowledge.
